Jonah - The Prophets Bible Study

[@3branchesx21yretired3]

Good morning. I am new to your scriptures but have been listening to the Bear Independent channel for a couple of years. My belief in God has been with me for about the last 10 years, being 50 I have never had anyone speak his word the way you do. Thank you for bringing me a way to be able to listen and learn in a way that others have not been able to get through to me.

[@nursesida]

I made the mistake of asking God in prayer where He would like to use me to serve Him; and He literally sent me to Ninevah to work in a medical center in a camp for Yazidi refugees fleeing ISIS. I knew how it worked out for Jonah when He tells you to go to Ninevah and you dip out.

[@johnwurfel2862]

Mosul is a rough place.

[@MontanaMikes]

My Yazidi refugee neighbors are really really good neighbors. Couldn't ask for better. More like family than just neighbors.

[@nursesida]

@@MontanaMikes They are the best. So kind and generous. Awesome food.

[@MontanaMikes]

@@nursesida They do make amazing food. Ask me how I know.

I’ve been excited for this one ever since you brought it up the other day 😊

[@IanKing-me4rk]

Thank you bear awesome reading of scripture. The real version..god bless you and your family and friends. Keep up the good work.

[@billcoffey8086]

This study opens up the word to have a deeper understanding. Thank you for your time.

[@artemistoad]

Thank you so much! I love listening to your Bible Studies while I work and many times I stop in awe at the perspectives I have not considered. Thank you for your conviction in keeping the studies and teachings of the Torah! May YAH Bless you and yours each and everyday!

[@MDK1968Mimi]

Thank you Pastor Bear 🐻Amazing how the Lord works because we are in these scriptures at our church- week 2. Listening now coming from church. You can Run from The Lord but you can’t Hide. Amen. The Almighty has Such Grace for us and especially here for Jonah. Instead of Going 500 miles to Nineveh he runs 2500 miles to Tarshish. What an amazing story from the Lord to Us. To do God’s work to save the unsaved including Us. Praise Yah. Always do what God calls you to do. Blessings to you All.❤🙏🕊️

[@judipepper6066]

Praise Yah this was another amazing study time! Thank you! Shalom🙏💜🙋🏻‍♀️

WOW...I do believe by now EVERYTHING Iwas thought in the Quote CHURCH...was misleading..HE IS THE TRUTH. Thank u pastor TJ.

[@babbette45678]

I always look forward to listening to you and the scriptures. At times i listen 3 or 4 times to same videos. I am -we all are Lucky and blessed to have someone like you who articulates well.. and doesnt "cherry pick" through the Scriptures.. AMEN and ..THANK YOU Pastor Bear SHALOM

[@dragonkeeper1990]

I'm glad I started listening again

[@DowntoFish207]

Bear, I appreciate these videos. I'll be going back to the beginning to listen to each again. This is really needed right now in my life, my wife's health is not well due to Ehlers-Danlos and inflammation in the brain. I have been having health issues as well but that's on the back burner. Two of my kiddos have had concussion related injuries in the past month, one from soccer and one from a possible neurological problem that runs in her mother's family. We are very busy and being run extremely thin financially due to specialist visits and no insurance. All this to say thank you. I have admittedly lost my way with the past few years of blaming and questioning why this can all happen instead of thanking for every day we do have. You have mentioned in the past these videos don't get as much traction but please continue, we all need it whether we know it or not.

Good morning Bear Nation

[@DarleneGardiner]

Thank you Bear for talking about the many layers of this book. I had always taken this book at face value..wow you totally have opened my eyes to it ! I always wondered what the sign of Jonah was, that Messiah spoke of.

[@beeamerica5024]

God's word is a lot deeper than any man can understand but I think you're on to something here 😁😉 may we continue to study and learn until we can study and learn no more 🐝

[@christymiller6350]

Shalom Bear! Thanks so much for this teaching! Holy cow, you've given us a LOT to chew on! I just read Jonah with my boys ( they're 9 and 12) a few weeks ago, and I was like you, and was like...guys...this is one of those hard to understand books. I'm definitely going to have them listen to this! Thanks again Bear!

[@lisadavis6392]

Shalom!!

[@anonsmith8463]

I'm pretty sure Jonah wrote Jonah... the view he gives of himself is at once transparent and indicting, but I don't think he stays bitter. The moral cliff hanger of an ending he leaves us with is a familiar space for those who have wrestled with the Lord, as Jacob did. You come out the other end "bus up" and with a deeper faith you aren't always happy with, but with Peter when asked if we are going to leave too, we say where the hell else are we going to go... Jesus, you are the only One with the Words of Life... I appreciate your time in putting this together, brother. Mahalo!

[@williamjordan3998]

Another speculation about the sudden change in Nineveh centers on their worship of a fish god and goddess Nanshe and Dagon respectively. Word of Jonah’s miraculous event with the fish may have be reached the King before Jonah reached Nineveh. Thanks for the foreshadowing of the Messiah.

[@hilltopgirl2665]

Though I be but a kindergarten maths level, I have always understood how Totally important numbers are to the frame of our existence. I wish I could understand even a tiny bit of it. Its so important and strikes you awe struck by how far our Father is above us.

In Glendive, Montana, there is a dinosaur and creation museum. It's excellent. My son loves it. It has a hall of biblical artifacts and includes very compelling arguments for the behemoth of Job being an Argentinosaurus (long neck). Highly recommend.

[@jasonmerrifield6342]

Good morning people

[@fa11enknight]

Great study Bear. My take on the First Fruits issue is that Christ was the first raised never to die again. All the others resurrected in the Bible would die again in the future.

[@ballisticintegrity9741]

Great study!Shalom

[@carriebeard-R.I.T.S]

Maybe Jonah was of the mindset that his enemies or heathen shouldn't be saved... 🤷🏼‍♀️. He sure did pout about it. Got to love The Father's patience and sense of humor (the worm)

[@darronhaworth1578]

Shalom Pastor TJ Wow 😯 What an amazing deep-dive into the Book of Yonah🤔 The lengths you go to research Scripture in preparation for these weekly readings is inspiring and very much appreciated👍 Your ability to bring clarity and understanding to the Scriptures is truly remarkable🤔 May YHVH bless you always for all that you are doing to regather Elohim’s lost sheep🙏

[@TH4Peace]

Thank you, this is so much more than any sermon or teaching on the book of Jonah that I’ve heard. You’re feeding your flock…and we are hungry.

[@Yahswayfarms]

Yeshua was the first fruit's of the resurrection with a spiritual body. Not the first person brought back to life. There several people that were dead then brought to life. Yeshua got the perfect body that we will receive at the resurrection. Good teaching bro

[@kimgordon3695]

Those brought back to life before Yeshua were brought back to the Earth. Widow of Nain's only Son; Japeth's Daughter; Yeshuah's dear Friend Lazarus. Demonstrating the future grand Resurrection.

[@OkTxSheepLady]

“120000 who don’t know their left from their right and cattle”. Is this the number of adults or is to the number of children, those who are as Innocent as the cattle?

[@12th_C]

The general consensus has been that that this is the number of children who are below the age of accountability. The part about the cattle makes me think of Psalm 50 : 10.

[@Unknownprepper347]

Great study! A lot of parallels. Fishers of men, literally and figuratively.

[@beeamerica5024]

In Genesis after the great flood he gave the sign of the rainbow and made a covenant with all living things not just the ones that are in Israel

Wow so many layers to this Dealing with my own unforgiveness . What I gleaned is Yah’s mercy and compassion toward us , Its like he’s saying, yes I know you went through something pretty bad your cries were heard but these people are completely ignorant and he is Just! This is huge!

Paradigms shifting every prophet video.

[@bayoucountry3331]

My question is being that most of us watching this live in a country where we are literate and have unlimited access to Yah’s word, when do become accountable. Back in BC times and third world nations there may have only be one scroll/Bible and only a handful of people who could actually read it. I don’t believe Americans have much of an excuse not to know The Word of Elohim. Shalom

[@BigP278]

Enjoy your bible studies. Would like to see them offers as a podcast. Thank you for spending the time to make these videos.

[@dianasmith8166]

Plesiosaur or similar if in the sea. There was also the Valley of Sheol, where, after a great bubonic plague, the dead bodies were taken to be burned. The fires burned without stopping for two years. It's where people get the idea that Hell is full of endless fire and torment. But that's an interesting take that he might have been dead. Makes more sense than (ooh, baptism!) than him trying to find air and sustenance in the belly of a whale. Maybe medieval writers were trying to envision something big enough to survive in?

[@kimgordon3695]

Do you mean the Valley of Ghehennah? Sheol translates common grave. Hadés / is not a firey place. "There is no knowledge..." in the place to which (we) are going.

[@dianasmith8166]

@@kimgordon3695 I believe so. But if they were all disposed of there, "Sheol" fits

[@someplaceonearth7506]

Pastor Joe Fox... I was wondering if you knew him... after being led to your channel... That prayer was answered quickly... This Torah path sure has been full of joy, the kind of joy you defined in an other video, since I've been on it.. God kept bringing me around to this true way, several times, before I finally started listening.. Traditions from my youth kept getting in the way. but for some reason, i think it's this verse 1 John 3:4 KJV Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. That was brought to light, a verse I had read many times, finally got my attention.. and my life and walk with Yehovah, hasn't been the same since... Now I'm seeing the power of God working as I've never noticed before... Now even though fairly familiar with Yehovah's scriptures, I'm am like a bumbling toddler trying to learn and get a handle on all this, and the feasts and festivals, that most of the western teachings ingrained in me, had overlooked or not given much attention too.. I've been seeking discernment for knowing when to pray for the destruction of our enemies, and when to know when deadly force is appropriate should evil show up at my door.. Then Yehovah brought me to your channel, and in my mind, I believe you're His teacher to help me with this .. I first saw you on Michael Rood's channel, so when I was led to your channel, I already knew who you were... Anyway, I just wanted to give YeHoVaH some glory and give you some encouragement to let you know I really appreciate your ministry .. Much Love to you, Brother... Yehovah lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.

To those who are wrestling with the idea that Jonah died and was resurrected. Don’t forget about… 1 Kings 17 : 17-22 2 Kings 4 : 18-37 2 Kings 13 : 20 Mark 5 : 41 Luke 7 : 14 John 11 : 38-44 Matthew 27 : 52-53 Acts 9 : 36-42 And Acts 20 : 7-12 Not definitive that he actually died, but there is most definitely room in scripture for it.

[@kimmypfeiffer9130]

i just re watched master and commander and they called one of the crew a 'jonah' as bad luck! and i understood it after listening to this with bear! woof!

[@paulnandico2370]

Agree with most you shared, including that men and "dinosaurs" coexisted. Agree mention of Sheol is a heavy subject. Is it possible Jonah perceived himself to be good as dead, rather than literally dead? BTW, didn't many return from the dead before Yeshua? Not just Lazarus, but those who rose when he died on the stake/cross? Re the number of days Noah was on the ark, I think you misspoke @41:57 Most don't know he was on so long, so would likely not question 270 days. However, we read it was 1 year and 10 days. Genesis 7:11 [11]In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. Genesis 8:13-14 [13]And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry. [14]And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried. Oh... last vs... 120k people... was that just a percent of the people, or specific to the people in the town limits? If all people of the area, maybe YHVH displayed mercy to (20%) of the 600k.

[@betty8173]

I wonder if the shipmates ever found out that Ionah had not died...

[@kimgordon3695]

Most likely. because Jonah eventually accepted Yah's assignment & went to Ninevah to warn the people

[@EvangelistToMatthew7.21-23]

This reading is better than crapy sunday school, and their softball version. By the way, this is easy to digest, dinosaurs/ dragons/ behemoth were created the 6th day, same day as Adam. See AnswersinGenesis for greater indepth understanding of how fossils are formed, and how quickly a fosil can form. Also, they.arw still digging up dinosaur bones with soft tissue still inside.

I would have all the way just read the four pages in the Scriptures and been on my way to Mikah, but no! As usual you have to go explaining things and pointing them out and showing me another reason I dislike private school “education” I had for 12 years lol. I had nuns as teachers and no one has taught me more about Yah then a dang ‘ol KZbin prepper guy. Still blows my mind! I can not thank you enough Bear for doing this on camera.

Blessings and shalom TJ and your loved ones, and all brothers and sisters in Yeshua Messiah around the world 🙏🏻 from a sister in Oz land. TJ would it be possible to provide a link to Kaleb House. Just a suggestion. I will search for it though always in the back of my mind I worry there might be a dodgy link somewhere that I would stumble across. Lately I have had two phones gone dead from malware....one was Temu as I downloaded the app before I came across your pod which warned against it. Then sure enough the phone screen went black. And my iPhone spare went dead after I used a spare random charger handed in to the motel's office, which I believe has caused the phone to malfunction. Thanks TJ Bear for your uplifting bible pods and also intel🙏🏻

Could it be that the pharoh reference was intended as the spirit of and not the physical?

[@12th_C]

There is thought that the pharaoh of the exodus wasn’t completely human. (Possibly the descendant of a nephelim) Rob Skiba talked about the pharaoh who rose up (not knowing Joseph) and put the Hebrew into forced labor was an Assyrian. The next pharaoh was the one of the exodus. The idea of him going back to the possible land of his father after a defeat is interesting. This is all in the “i have absolutely no idea” category but i find it fascinating.
